And that’s not necessarily a bad thing either. What really drives this track is the halcyon vibe Moore emits, in mentioning how a woman in a red sun dress, some time by the creek at two in the morning and, yes……..a four-wheel drive……….just really makes a day………and he wisely doesn’t try and explain why that is. You take his word for it……….because you can relate to how good he feels.

This may be indeed a list song packed with stock descriptors, and yet it works……because it doesn’t try to explain anything or aim for anything more than it is: a pleasant, happy ode to quality time killing.

Given, like I said, this is a single driven by its vibe rather than by a typical verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus structure, I don’t expect this to be a big hit for Moore. However, taking into account this single’s official video has racked up Brantley Gilbert-esque monster viewership numbers on YouTube, it is evident his major commercial breakthrough is imminent, and 2012 will quite likely be a great year for this rising star.
